for cleaning in running fluid bed operations With Glatt Ingenieurtechnik’s newly developed spray nozzle device, the inner tube can be removed and cleaned safely while the process is still running. When it comes to spray granulating, spray agglomerating or spray coating and drying food ingredients by fluidized or spouted bed technology, spray nozzles play a key role in quality control. With its hygienic, explosion-proof removable spray nozzles for the food and pharmaceutical industries, particle design specialist Glatt Ingenieurtechnik sets new standards in process safety and plant availability. If unexpected quality issues arise during the fluidized bed process, such as particles becoming too large or coarse, it might be because of a change in the nozzle spray pattern. Sticky or crystallizing spray fluids such as salts or sugar may induce fluctuations in the spray pattern, and also hygroscopic products which sometimes remain in the plant during downtime. A spray unit consists of a fluid-carrying inner

Hi Europe 2016, booth J72: Glatt Ingenieurtechnik showcases innovative processes At Health Ingredients Europe 2016 in Frankfurt, Glatt Ingenieurtechnik GmbH will present its state-of-the-art fluidized and spouted bed technologies for the precise adjustment of product attributes in food, instant beverages, dietary supplements and nutraceuticals. The engineering expert and plant manufacturer offers solutions for sophisticated applications that require specific particle sizes or shapes, optimum solubility or the functional protection of active ingredients, for example. From technical challenges during production, filling or handling to the problematic development of functional, nutritional or sensory properties, processing liquid or powdered raw materials can be demanding for food manufacturers and producers of functional ingredients. With fluidized and spouted bed technologies, Glatt Ingenieurtechnik will highlight pioneering processes that influence and adjust product attributes using spray granulation, spray agglomeration, spray coating and spray
